The VAIO UX Series VGN-UX390N Micro Computer from Sony is a tiny, ultra-portable computer designed for the mobile professional. The computer features a widescreen, touchscreen LCD that can be viewed in either landscape or portrait mode. The computer can rest in the palm of your hand, allowing you to use the included stylus to input information via the touchscreen interface, or you can side the screen up to reveal a QWERTY keyboard that allows you to hold the PC in both hands as you type.
Wireless connectivity is a must with a truly mobile PC. The VAIO UX features 802.11a/b/g Wi-Fi to connect to all standard wireless networks and hotspots. Bluetooth support is also integrated into the device, allowing you to interface with your wireless Bluetooth devices. Users of the Cingular Wireless EDGE Network will also appreciate the integrated support for that service.
The VAIO comes with software such as Microsoft Streets & Trips and Microsoft Works for productivity. Also included is a biometric fingerprint reader and corresponding software to store your passwords. This allows you to enter a password simply by placing your finger on the reader.
The system is powered by a 1.33 GHz Intel Core Solo U1500 CPU and boasts 1 GB of RAM, a 32 GB NAND hard drive, wireless Ethernet, Bluetooth and an 4.5" Widescreen/Touchscreen display powered by Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 graphics. Windows Vista Business Edition is the platform that ties all this hardware and software together, giving you a great ultra-portable computer for the mobile professional backed by the Sony name.
